Abstract
This article is intended to study “Southern Thai’s Ancient Teaching Literature: Intertextuality, People, and Society”. The study found some connection between parts of the Southern Thai’s ancient teaching literature and Central Thai’s literature which could be ranged from teaching titles, teaching compilation, and teaching essence, while some minor differences of wording on paragraphs and chapters also could be found. This group of literature reflected thoughts and beliefs of the ancient Southerner on the issue of heaven, hell, and nirvana, representing the use of Buddhist’s religious discipline as a tool for governing people and controlling society. It is also found that the ancient Southerner determined some social conducts on “age and sexuality” which were taught to the young and the old. Also, there were some teachings about fellowship, focusing on deep and intense consideration of how to avoid bad people’s traps. These feudal teachings were represented through relationships between king and nobleman, master and servant, and also man and woman. It was highly emphasized on the issue of women to retain good conduct, to obey, to be introvert, and to be strict on the third precept. The teaching literature is kind of relationship management, based on patriarchy discourses, aimed to support central and local administration, and also the peaceful life of the Thai Southerner’s multi-cultural society.
